Joining Team Target

Yes, we'd love for you to join Team Target and you'll receive the same support as someone who's taking part with a charity place.

There's no minimum fundraising target if you have your own place – we just hope you'll raise as much as you can!

Please note, we do ask for proof of your own place to avoid confusion or disappointment.

How does my fundraising help?

Your support makes all the difference to ensure that we can continue our work targeting life-saving early diagnosis, treatment and support.

£70 could give 70 people the right symptom information, making sure they access support as early as possible.

£35 could update training for five GPs on ovarian cancer symptoms and best practice for early diagnosis. 

£17 could enable one person to call our support line when they need advice and information they can trust.

How do I get started with my fundraising?

Once you've completed your registration with us, your charity fundraising page is automatically created for you. We'd highly recommend personalising your page with a profile photo and your reason for supporting us, making a donation to your page and then sharing your page with your family, friends, colleagues and on social media to kickstart your fundraising!
